Hi Roland, the air-draft of Arabella is 8ft 5. After numerous attempts in the past at trying to get under Ludham Bridge, the bridge markers were never at the right height for us to safely do so. Finally, on this attempt, we had planned it a lot better (i.e. timing it with low water), which allowed us to easily get under. We have been told in the past that the bridge height at Ludham is a little out, and we can confirm that, as we had a good 3 inches clearance when we went under (with the marker showing 8ft 5). Hope you enjoyed the video!
That Irstead mooring is idyllic. The church is well worth a visit too. Lots of interesting features dating back to medieval times.
It does look a beautiful mooring - hoping one day we can get in there; would love to visit the church!
What's the height of your boat normally we go through on tempo and that's 8/
